Weekly Tournament Triple Up!

After a nice hiatus, I came back to the Zynga Weekly Tournament. Today I tripled up! Not much chips, but you know what the Chip Taker is capable of.

Check out the photo. Instagram style.

 Boom! Just tripled up again. I have 30K now. Posting while I'm playing. Got two kills on this play too. I know you love 4 of a kind 8's, it's a classic Chip Taker hand.

Ha, another Weekly Tournament double up. 80K now. Only problem is I have things to do. We'll see if I can squeeze in some more tourney time.

I took a bag of chips from Sherri. Now I'm over 100K. Thx Sherri. Now I'm trying to switch positions with George, but he's trying really hard to stay above 1 Million. Not for long Georgie...

Thx George. The good thing about Zynga's Weekly Tournament is there are plenty of players like George that are perfect for me to take chips from. Now he's trying to get back over 1 Million from a different seat.

Str8 Flush. James Bond style. Gimme that Daniel. 130K.

That's it this week. I'm going to smash these players now that I'm using my original weekly tournament formula.

Until next time.

Weekly Tournament Triple Up!

Does Anyone Still Play??

It's difficult to keep playing Zynga's Texas Holdem Poker. But I do because I enjoy taking player's chips. Does anyone else still play? I have over 50 friends that quit because..

You Frauds Will Lose

As you may be aware, I have declared war on cheaters playing Zynga Texas Holdem Poker. This was a 5 player tournament versus 4 players all on the same team. Or 1 player with 4 accounts. We may never know.

The first pic shows me getting a straight flush and taking chips. Thinking, "Why you no call??"

The next pic shows the final hand of the game. Read the chat and enjoy.

Do the math. They paid a total of 40 Million chips to enter this tournament. This 1 received 15 Million for 2nd place, the next 1 got his chips back, the other 2 lost all. They lost 15 Million chips trying to cheat me out of what I do best. Rookies.

Take from the rich and prey on the cheats.

Zynga is releasing shares on the NASDAQ stock market today $Zynga. Good Luck Zynga!
They will raise a lot of $$$, and I will raise the amount of chips I take in Texas Holdem Poker. I am among the best for a reason. Their games are highly addictive, and I've channeled my addiction to winning, into a few sure fire strategies of taking chips from the rich, and feeding off the poor. Thank you Zynga Poker.

Stay tuned. I may release a new chip taking strategy like this one

Taking Poker Millons Without Raising

The Game has Changed

For all of you who have done well at Zynga's Texas Holdem Poker, you may have noticed that the game has changed. There are now an influx of 'beginners', not first time players, but players who started a new account to take advantage of these flaws in Zynga's game. They are frauds, and now they don't always appear on a table alone. To compensate for their lack of tournament knowledge, they roll in twos and threes. If they are on either side of you, one will raise. If you call, the other will reraise. If just two of them are in the hand and one has a lot more chips than the other, he will raise high for the other to call, then he will fold, to share the chips.

They do this boldly. They do not care what you think, they are cheating to win. They can be beaten, but you must be aware of other successful techniques, and use them with precision. Can you report them? If you wish. There may not be much time to do so if you are still playing.

Certain tricks that were almost guaranteed to make you win, don't always work anymore. These were tricks that required you to xxx a xxx of xxxxx in xxx xxxxxx. If you try it, you may look just as bad as these frauds if the cards in your hand are revealed. Even worse, you stand to lose a lot of chips, and no one wants that.

"Server Problems"

It's a little disturbing when you are poised to win a 1 Million chip Tournament, you are dealt pocket queens, when all of a sudden, you are no longer able to click any buttons.
Has this ever happened to you? In the middle of a game, you press the Check button, but your time keeps running out? Out of desperation you click Raise, Fold, anything in hopes of regaining control of your player.

It's happened to me several times, but what is interesting is that this is something that NEVER used to happen before. The response by players is, "Oh it's server problems".

Zynga needs to understand that if players are risking the chips they earned, and I must add that these chips have a monetary value, it is best that players lose their chips as a result of the game, not any problems as a result of interface or programming, or any other technical issues that Zynga is having.
Capiche?

Poker Fraud Part 2

 

I'm in round 2 of the Zynga Shootout against all fish and big dogs. Everything is 'All-In', especially from this guy. If you don't know why Fish always go all in with bad cards, read this. I had no chance this time, just 3rd place. Unfortunately for Qiw, he got 4th.

If you want a chance to win 50k, beat me in a tournament. Facebook search for Strike Strategy and tell me you read this blog post.

Nice try Zynga. Unless my chips are $5, and his are $1

I guess I'm supposed to get jealous and buy $11.5M poker chips. :)

The iPhone Player Advantage

My buddy Chip let me in on a secret.

When you play Zynga's Texas Holdem on an iPhone, you:

• Can see all chat messages, including people who are not playing
• Are always seated in the same position in a tourney unless someone chooses the seat first
• If your buddy request is blocked, they can still send you one

How do you know you are playing against someone with an iPhone?

• You can tell if they are using the old iPhone app if the player has no pic.
• The 1st one is usually seated at the left side of the table near the dealer chip.
• They have no ranking (eg. Ace, Rounder, Champion) above their avatar.

The iPhone Player Advantage

Poker Fraud

Have you ever played against someone with this pic? Actually, there is one on my buddy list. Remind me to delete them if I haven't done so already. Sometimes when someone speaks to you via zynga chat, your mind puts a voice to the person. For some strange reason, there was a really deep voice to the one with this pic. "Strrike gi me chip...."

Zynga Poker Frauds are everywhere. My last post has some good clues to help you recognize one. An additional trait that I didn't mention is the player's profile pic. Keep a lookout for:

• a hot Oriental girl
• a probably too young to play poker and supposedly future hot Oriental girl
• a hot Caucasian girl (or girls)
• a girl in a small bathing suit
• a girl whose pic focuses on large breasts
• a baby (careful...these guys are tricky)
• a cartoon character
• a pic that does not, or barely enlarges

The list made you laugh right? Understandably so. But take it seriously, because it might save you a few hundred thousand chips.

Poker Fraud

Tissue Inflation

Due to the popularity of buying a player a box of tissues when they lose, be aware that Zynga has inflated the cost from 10 chips to 500!!!
So for all of you Zynga poker players who dish out tissues frivolously, don't expect to see a warning from Zynga. They need you to help the struggling economy.

Tissue Inflation

ZZZZZZZZ...

Do you know what it means when a player types "zzzzzz"? The universal meaning is "This is boring". Look for a different underlying meaning when a zynga poker player types it. Many times you will find that it means:


Before the flop - They have good cards
After the flop - The flop was good for them

There may be other occasions where it has a different meaning. If you've seen something more than once, please share. Otherwise, take heed to the knowledge I have shared with you.

Zynga Poker Flaw #1

Why is Zynga poker so fun? Because the program is designed to make you win often when you join. Simple but effective. That is why so many people play. However, there are those who exploit this feature. They have a main account with millions, perhaps even a few billion chips. They then open a new account, feed millions into it (chip dumping), and play on tables that will net them as much chips as possible. This works often because its a new account. In fact, several players believe that these frauds are employed by Zynga. Maybe. Just look at some of the comments on Zynga's fanpage. You tell me.

Regardless, there are ways to spot these Zynga frauds.

 

1. Strange name
2. They have only been a player for a few months or less or they have not played very many hands compared to the amount of chips they have.
3. They risk 50% to 100% of their total chips on the table
4. They go all in preflop with cards like Q7, 69, K8, 22, and they win. Especially on the river.
5. They have less than 5 'poker buddies'
6. I did not circle the percentage of 'Sit N Go's Won' in this example. You will notice that many of the frauds will have a zero in this category. The zynga fraud I chose in this pic has a very good percentage, but they have been a player for less than a month, and I beat him with ease because he is not skilled. The likely reason was that he won 1 out of 6 tournaments.

When you join a table, look at the profiles of the other players. You will find the Zynga frauds in advance. Don't call their All In preflop raises. Even if you have AA there is a high likelihood that you will be beaten by a straight, flush, or full house.

Will Zynga correct this flaw? Maybe, but there are obvious advantages if they don't. First, they can boast about they amount of players they have, and there are many of these frauds posing as players. Second, if the rumor that these frauds are employed by Zynga is true, then it is unlikely that Zynga will crack down on them. Third, they do a very important job. They win hands with cards so poor, that it may be considered pure luck by the players that lost. We know this is not the case, but this makes the loser want to play more to get their chips back. Remember, Zynga's goal is to get as many players as they can to play as often as possible. This is what makes a never ending game successful.
